About American Smelting & Refining Works
American Smelting & Refining Works provides scrap metal recycling services in Dallas, Texas. The business takes inbound material from walk-in sellers, small contractors, and salvage haulers across the surrounding county, and operates as a paid outlet for inbound scrap metal volume. Accepted-material categories are not on file in our directory for this yard, and the listing field remains open at present. On the contact front, a phone line appears in the listing. Day-to-day hours aren't posted in the directory, which together form the yard's published-facing schedule and channel mix as filed with the directory, and give sellers a working sense of how to reach the site before driving over. Larger inbound volumes benefit from a phone-ahead so the yard can plan gate space and any handling equipment needed at intake. The same call lets sellers confirm whether the site can accommodate the planned load on the planned day of the drive over.
